LRN Crane (Replace, Rehab, Repair) MATOC

This is a special notice required under FAR 5.205 (g) and 7.107-5 (c), for consolidation of contract requirements.  The Nashville District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineer plans to solicit offers for Crane Replacement, Rehabilitation, and Repairs primarily located in the USACE Nashville District Area of Responsibility and occasionally within the geographical boundaries of the Great Lakes and Ohio River Division. The Nashville District has conducted market research and has determined consolidation of this procurement is necessary and justified. This requirement meets the specific consolidation requirements identified in FAR 2.102 (1)(ii), requirements of the Federal agency for construction projects to be performed at two or more discrete sites. Consolidating the discrete projects for an efficient competition process between qualified MATOC contractors aids the government in meeting mission objects because it limits consideration to contractors who have proved they have the skills and competencies to meet the specialized government needs for project similar in nature. This limitation reduces overall administrative costs to the government, permits for more timely site specific awards. The timely awards mitigate potential for longer interruptions In work at the locks and dams and mitigate risk to the safety of employees and successful continued operations.

The MATOC pool will be competed as full and open with a target of six (6) contracts, including a small business set aside reserve with a target of three (3) contracts.

The government antcipates release of the solicitation on or around June 2023.
